1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Precision medicine is an emergent medical paradigm that uses information technology to inform the use of targeted therapies and treatments. One of the first steps of precision medicine involves acquiring the patient's informed consent to protect their rights to autonomous medical decision-making. In pediatrics, there exists mixed recommendations and guidelines of consent-related practices designed to safeguard pediatric patient interests while protecting their autonomy. Here, we provide a high-level, clinical primer of (1) ethical informed consent frameworks widely used in clinical practice and (2) promising modern adaptations to improve informed consent practices in pediatric precision medicine. Given the rapid scientific advances and adoption of precision medicine, we highlight the dual need to both consider the clinical implementation of consent in pediatric precision medicine workflows as well as build rapport with pediatric patients and their substitute decision-makers working alongside interdisciplinary health teams.
